9、 know that I made a difference between his life and his death.10,COLUMBUS, Ohio-The heart operation taking place in the pale-green operating room at the Ohio State University Medical Center was unusual. The patient, a 62-year-old man, was made to sleep, tied with blue drapes (消毒帷帘) and lying face up

10、 on a narrow table. But no one was touching him.Instead, the operation was being performed by a robot, whose three metal arms went through pencil-sized holes in the mans chest. At the ends of the robots arms were tiny metal fingers, with turning wrists, which held a tiny instrument, a light and a ca

11、mera. The robots arms and fingers were controlled by Dr. Randall. K. Wolf, the surgeon, sitting at a computer in a corner of the operating room about 20 feet away.This sort of operation, heart surgeons say, is the start of what may be the biggest change in their profession since heart bypass surgery

12、 (心脏搭桥手术) began nearly 30 years ago. “The reason we make cuts is that we have big hands,” said Dr. Wolf, the director of the surgery at Ohio State. The robots dainty fingers, no longer than a nail on the small finger, at the end of the long sticks could work better.Eventually, surgeons believe, most

13、 heart surgery will be done by robots whose arms are put in through pencil-sized holes punched in patients chests. Instead of directly staring into a patients body, surgeons will view magnified images of the operation on computer screens. In theory, the doctor would not have to be in the same room,

14、or even the same country, as the patient.1. In this passage, the underlined word “dainty” means _.A. small B. weak C. fat D. quick2.

16、, all of the following conclusions are true EXCEPT that _.A. all doctors at Ohio State develop new surgical techniquesB. robot surgery is being developed at Ohio StateC. robot surgery will be used on many patients in the near futureD. many hospitals will eventually offer robot surgery to patients11,

17、Insurance companies provide a service to the community by protecting it against expected and unexpected disasters. Before an insurance company will agree to insure anything, it collects accurate figures about the risk. It knows, for example, that the risk of a man being killed in a plane accident is

18、 less than the risk he takes in crossing a busy road. This enables it to quote (报价) low figures for travel insurance. Sometimes the risk may be high, as in motor-racing or mountaineering. Then the company charges a much higher price. If too many climbers have accidents, the price rises further. If t

19、he majority of climbers fall off mountains, the company will refuse to insure them.An ordinary householder may wish to protect his home against fire or his property against burglary (入室行窃). A shopkeeper may wish to insure against theft. In normal cases, the company will check its statistics and quot

20、e a premium (保险费). If it is suspicious (可疑的), it may refuse to quote. If it insures a shop and then receives a suspicious claim, it will investigate the claim as a means of protecting itself against false claims. It is not unknown for a businessman in debt to burn down his own premises so that he ca

21、n claim much money from his insurance company. He can be sure that the fire will be investigated most carefully. Insurance companies also accept insurance against shipwreck or disaster in the air. Planes and ships are very expensive, so a large premium is charged, but a reduction is given to compani

22、es with an accident-free record.Every week, insurance companies receive premium payments from customers. These payments can form a very large total running into millions of dollars. The company does not leave the money in the bank. It invests (投资) in property, shares (股票), farms and even paintings a

23、nd stamps. Its aim is to obtain the best possible return on its investment.

27、ys plan down to the minute what their students will be doing. This is good for kids, because it teaches them to stay on task and follow a schedule. But most homes arent run this way.

31、k-getting them to do their homework” says a professor of child development at California State University, “TV is addictive.” A better way to help your child unwind is with a healthy snack. “Wait until dinner, make a plate full of energizing food.
